Available Lead Guards

Something about him reminds me of Ponds and Lovett.
One thing that makes you think he can do well at a better level is that he was the only non-senior in the top 8 in minutes. It's tough to beat out that many experienced players at any level. To average 13.6 and 3.7 looks even better through that lens.

BYU apparently a big fan.

He would JUMP around the chance but the minutes just aren't there as opposed to being Hofstra's main man.

Hope this was meant to be tongue in cheek and not serious.

Absolutely NO. I went to 2 Hofstra games this year and saw them another few times on SNY.

Not a Big East level player. He knew that a few days into his stay here.

He was the starting PG on Hofstra and their level of play made Seton Hall look like the Auburn Tigers at times this year😉

While for the most part, it is embarrassing reading grown men posting like forlorn, anxiety ridden, dateless, teenage snowflakes, there is this part of me enjoying it.

Moderating would not be easy of course, but having the PG search last as long as possible creates a purely theatre of the macabre-like experience.

Hey, we all have a vicious side.

If we wait for a guy to receive NBA feedback, you may get your wish granted!
 
I would be fine with McDaniel. He might be the quickest guard in the country and he can shoot, this past season notwithstanding. I have some of the same concerns with him that I had with Jenkins, though.

He could be really fun on defense and in the open court.
 
Looking at the portal of guys listed as PG; other than Hargress (best available) and Dug (2nd best available) who have been talked about a lot. Will list in order of how they are ranked by 247 (first stat is career turnovers per game, second is 3 point % and third is FT):

1. Jestin Porter (SR) Middle TN - 1.7 / 34.9 / 78.8
2. Nate Calmese (SR) Wash State - 2.3 / 32.6 / 71.5
3. Amaree Abram (SR) Louisianna Tech - 1.7 / 35.9 / 75.6
4. Jamarii Thomas (SR) South Carolina - 1.8 / 35.9 / 77.3
5. Martin Somerville (SO) UMASS Lowell - 1.5 / 40.5 / 82.6
6. Zachary Davis (SR) South Carolina - 1.2 / 25 / 70.5
7. Mike Mitchel Jr (SR) Minnesota - 2.2 / 39.4 / 75.8
8. Jeremiah Williams (SR) Rutgers - 1.9 / 26.3 / 66.8
9. Bryce Lindsay (JR) JMU - 1.1 / 39.7 / 82
10. Ty-Laur Johnson (JR) Wake - 2.3 / 21.7 / 82.6

Nobody listed above is an offensive game changer, but assuming Ian commits today then between Ian, Sellers, Sim, Joson, Hopkins and Zuby we have 6 guys that can score double digits and have proven they can do so in a big-time program. We also have Hopkins and Zuby who can work with their back to the basket and Hopkins, Ian, and Joson (Sim to some extent) that can create their own shots and score in bunches. What I'm hoping is that we can get is a PG that can handle the ball and not commit stupid turnovers, knock down an open 3, and hit FTs at the end of the game.

Of the above, and based purely on stats and height, I think we could be fine with Porter, Mitchel or Williams. All three have enough size and played in relatively strong leagues. Other than Williams all seem to be good shooters as well. Obviously, I'm crossing my fingers that a better option comes to the table, but this is what is out there now.
